Birth Trauma & Paternalistic Care with Kayleigh Summers

Today I am speaking with Kayleigh Summers. Kayleigh is a licensed therapist, mom, and birth trauma survivor located in Southeastern PA. You may know her on social media as thebirthtrauma_mama. Kayleigh suffered an Amniotic Fluid Embolism during the birth of her son in 2019, which almost took her life. Since then, She’s used her skillset as a therapist and lived experiences as a birth trauma survivor to create a supportive community for others who have experienced trauma during the perinatal period. She creates social media content and resources to help other birth trauma survivors navigate their healing. Follow Kayleigh on Instagram: instagram.com/thebirthtrauma_mama/Follow Erin on Instagram:⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠instagram.com/feminist.mom.therapist⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Learn more about Erin:⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠erinspahrtherapy.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Support the podcast with a monthly donation:⁠⁠ ⁠https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/feministmompodcast/support⁠⁠⁠Please note: The information provided on this podcast is for educational and entertainment purposes only.
